Advertising Section 117 ■ Goldwyn. A light, amusing comedy concerned with the evils and dangers of Broadway. Constance Bennett, Joan Crawford, and Sally O'Neil are three musical-comedy girls. William Haines is the hero. "Sea Horses" — Paramount. Pleasant tropical film featuring Florence Vidnr, Jack Holt, and that easy-going villain. George Bancroft, and including both a deluge and a cyclone. "Seven Sinners"— Warner. Marie Prevost, John Patrick, and Clive Brook are the three most important of seven crooks who simultaneously attempt to rob the same country house and all get locked in together. Good comedy. "Skinner's Dress Suit" — Universal. Reginald Denny in a thoroughly enjoyable comedy of young clerk whose wife becomes extravagant on the strength of a raise which he dares not tell her he has not received. Laura La Plante is the wife. "Song and Dance Man, The" — Paramount. Clever, amusing picture of the ups and downs of vaudeville players. Tom Moore, Bessie Love, and good supporting cast, make things interesting. "Splendid Crime, The" — Paramount. Bebe Daniels as a lady crook who falls in love with a handsome young man, played by Neil Hamilton, and straightway reforms. Not an unusually exciting film, but worth seeing. "Splendid Road, The"— First National. A fast and furious film of the California gold-rush days, with Anna Q. Nilsson, Lionel Barrymore, and Robert Frazer in the foreground. "Stage Struck" — Paramount. Gloria Swanson in slapstick comedy; tale of small-town waitress with stage aspirations who joins a cheap traveling show with amusing results. "That Royle Girl"— Paramount. D. W. Griffith picture — rather brassy melodrama featuring Carol Dempster, and including a murder trial and a cyclone. James Kirkwood, Harrison Ford, and W. C. Fields form the male contingent. "Tumbleweeds" — United Artists. Return of William S. Hart as noble cowboy in film of homesteading land rush. "Wanderer, The" — Paramount. Spectacular film based on biblical story of prodigal son, with William Collier, Jr., acquitting himself well in the difficult leading role, and Greta Nissen interesting as dancer who leads him astray. Ernest Torrence, in part of villain, gives best performance of picture. "We Moderns"— First National. Colleen Moore very much alive as English flapper who loses heart to drawingroom poet and does some rather startling things in process of getting him. "What Happened to Jones" — Universal. Reginald Denny in another entertaining film, dealing with a young man who gets into all sorts of complications. Marian Nixon and Zasu Pitts add to the fun. "Whispering Smith" — Producers Distributing. Exciting crook melodrama, with H. B. Warner in the role of a secret-service agent who falls in love with an outlaw's wife. Lilyan Tashman, Lillian Rich, and John Bowers. "Womanhandled" — Paramount. Richard Dix in a delightful light comedy of a polo-playing young Easterner who, to win a girl, tries to become a man thrilled by her radiant, youthful beauty! 7 HE seductive charm of her soft, warm coloring as she cut the water with swift, clean strokes had fascinated him.
